Fentanyl is an easy problem to solve, let people have uncut heroin. Fentanyl and the monstrous Carfentanil are only desireable for black markets, which love the high relative potency:volume. The problem is that the ED50 and LD50 of something like Carfentanil both look like a roughly identical grain of sand. Heroin is only dangerous to the person snorting, smoking, or shooting it up, but god help you if you’re exposed to a similar amount of fentanyl, or get a single grain of carfentanil on your skin. Legalize it, support people who use, support those who want to stop, and do it with money saved by downsizing LEO’s, CO’s and prisons. Support expanded mental healthcare with taxes from drugs (including alcohol). No black market, no piles of ultra-potent synthetic opioids shipped from China or Mexico. It’s the same thing with meth! Want to eliminate janky labs blowing up? Want to stop people dumping lab waste in the woods? Want to stop tweakers from robbing people for meth? Legalize it. It won’t make the world paradise, it will be difficult, but it’s better than prohibition. Just like alcoholism is a scourge, but it’s still better than the same scourge PLUS Al Capone.
